Chapter 025: Construction Efficiency

Wang Bo spent some time selecting a location on the map, finally settling on a site east of the End of the World Pavilion. The next day, he released twenty thousand mechanical soldiers.

Although the mechanical soldiers knew nothing about architecture, that didn't matter. They downloaded some architectural materials from the internet to study, and within a few hours, each of them transformed into skilled builders.

Moreover, the mechanical soldiers were not only immensely strong but also hardworking and tireless. Once they started work, they continued day and night without rest.

Efficiency went without saying—it was top-notch.

In just one day, they had already laid the foundation.

After three days, the outline of a temple began to take shape.

Seven days later, a magnificent temple rose from the ground, leaving Li Qiushui utterly amazed. Such efficiency was unprecedented; she had never seen a team with such astonishing speed.

By the tenth day, the temple was completed, with every detail meticulously crafted, a sight to behold.

To put it bluntly, ordinary construction workers would need several years to build such a grand temple.

Even with a workforce of a hundred thousand, it would take at least half a year.

But Wang Bo's mechanical soldiers finished it in just ten days—the gap was enormous.

Once the temple was built, Wang Bo gave the order, and the Buddha Star people moved in, transforming themselves into the temple's statues. Each one appeared solemn and lifelike.

Anyone unaware would never guess that these statues were not clay or wood, but living beings.

The Thousand-Armed Buddha statue, seeing his people in place, first bowed to Wang Bo, then handed over the technology for making weapons, including techniques for crafting Dharma wheels, Pure Vases, Palm Lamps, and Dharma swords.

Each of these weapons had its own merits.

For instance, the Dharma wheel could reverse time, healing any injury regardless of severity.

The Pure Vase could automatically produce highly corrosive water; a single splash could dissolve a person into a pool of blood, and even reinforced suits could not withstand it.

The Palm Lamp could emit rays of light as sharp and powerful as lasers.

The Dharma sword could cut through metal and jade with ease.

After obtaining these materials, Wang Bo handed them over to his subordinate, the Decepticon Conqueror, asking him to try to manufacture these weapons.

Conqueror did not refuse; he took the materials and immersed himself in the work.

It wouldn't be long, Wang Bo believed, before he saw the finished products.

Afterward, Wang Bo took his leave of the Thousand-Armed Buddha statue and returned to the End of the World Pavilion.

Seeing Wang Bo leave, the Thousand-Armed Buddha statue pressed his palms together in a bow, then walked to his own hall and sat in the enshrined position, his expression solemn and compassionate.

When Wang Bo returned to the End of the World Pavilion, Li Qiushui greeted him, saying, "Everything has been arranged."

Wang Bo nodded and said, "It's settled."

Li Qiushui said, "That's good. By the way, I had some snacks prepared. Would you like to try them?"

She cared little about the Buddha Star people; her concern was how to please Wang Bo.

Wang Bo understood Li Qiushui's intentions and did not refuse.

Li Qiushui immediately clapped her hands, ordering the snacks to be brought in, and also summoned a group of dancers to perform gracefully before Wang Bo, adding to the entertainment.

The lead dancer was a beautiful woman whom Wang Bo felt he had seen somewhere before.

Noticing Wang Bo's gaze frequently lingering on one dancer, Li Qiushui said considerately, "If you like her, I can send her to your room tonight. But you can only play with her; don't develop any feelings."

Wang Bo smiled wryly and said, "Do I look like such a desperate lecher? I just feel like I've seen that woman somewhere."

Li Qiushui said, "That woman is called A'zi, a worthless disciple of my worthless junior brother."

Hearing this, Wang Bo suddenly understood.

So she was Ding Chunqiu's disciple; no wonder she looked so familiar.

Back when Ding Chunqiu brought his people to attack the Quanzhen Sect, Wang Bo had thoroughly defeated him. He must have seen A'zi once around that time.

Later, Wang Bo handed over all of Ding Chunqiu's disciples to the Quanzhen Sect for disposal.

Wang Bo had thought the Quanzhen Sect would kill them all, but they only废掉了 their martial arts. With his current strength, Wang Bo could tell that A'zi's martial arts had been abolished, and she was now just an ordinary dancer.

Thinking of how in the original storyline, A'zi obtained the Jade Linglong and eventually became the Heavenly Mountain Child Elder, reaching the pinnacle of her life,

Wang Bo couldn't help but sigh.

It seemed that every time he intervened, the storyline underwent earth-shattering changes.

A'zi, who should have been a winner in life, had now been reduced to a dancer.

The twists of fate were truly unpredictable.

Seeing Wang Bo's look of realization, Li Qiushui said, "If you like her, don't worry about anything else. Everyone in the End of the World Pavilion, from top to bottom, including me, is at your beck and call, to do as you wish."

Wang Bo retorted, "Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

Li Qiushui said, "Precisely because you're not, I want to tell you that you can be."

Wang Bo shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'm not interested in her."

Li Qiushui smiled and said nothing more.

That night, Wang Bo stayed at the End of the World Pavilion, giving Li Qiushui a small lesson. The next morning, he left that world and returned to the Gantz world.

Back at the Ginza mansion, as Wang Bo pushed open the door and walked in, he saw Kishimoto Kei curled up on the sofa, silent.

Hearing footsteps, Kishimoto Kei turned her head. Seeing Wang Bo, a joyful smile involuntarily appeared on her previously lifeless face. "Lord Bo, you're back."

"Mm, I'm back. How have things been lately?"

Kishimoto Kei said, "Same as always."

Then she recounted what had happened to her.

During the Buddha Star incident, after Wang Bo sent all members back to the Gantz room, everyone was in an uproar, demanding to know why Gantz hadn't waited for the mission to be completed before sending them back.

Gantz was silent for a while, then abandoned the mission.

This sudden change caught everyone off guard. They quickly began discussing it, with Kato Masashi pointing out that the way they had returned this time was completely different from before.

But he didn't know the specifics either.

Kei Kurono thought it might be the work of the Buddha Star people, and many agreed.

Only Kishimoto Kei felt that this matter might be related to Wang Bo, but she didn't say anything. After everyone dispersed, she returned to the mansion to ask Wang Bo about it.

However, when Kishimoto Kei came back, she didn't find Wang Bo, only a note he had left saying, "I have to leave for a few days."
